If you were the manager would you just say “Great performance tonight” or would you be angry that they just sat back without seemingly trying in the previous 3 games? So was this a team shamed and transformed by self motivation or one driven hard to “up their games” and their application by the manager? We should expect this every match.
I’ve always liked Close. He looks fantastic with Westbrooke , another player that due to injury we haven’t seen enough of imo.
I’ll eat some humble pie in relation to Close, really thought his best days were behind him with his injury however he’s been class this season (in the main)
We see the game differently it seems. Most of our possession last night was across the defense then outwide. I don't think Close or Biggins did nearly enough and were physically bullied.But the stats say we're better with Close in the side....
I’ll echo most of what’s been put on here. Much better performance, we just looked a lot more mobile and resilient, and also always carried a threat. Passed the ball instead of just hoofing it. I actually thought after we equalised we could go on and win it, though I understand us shutting the shop for the last 20 mins. Strerry and both Jo’s were very good.

Strerry and both Jo’s were very good.We didn’t shut up shop. Both teams were looking to get the winning goal. It was just Mansfield who had a bit more possession in the last 20 mins. We were definitely not shutting up shop Prez and nearly won it late on.
